for Language Studies (CLS).

As a candidate for this position you: 
- have a doctoral degree in English linguistics and a strong research profile
in a specialisation relevant to the position;
- have a number of relevant publications in international publication outlets

- you are actively engaged in acquiring external research funding;

bonus;
- salary will depend on qualifications and experience, and will be between
€3,427 (scale 11) and €5,330 (scale 12) gross per month, based on full-time
employment;
- temporary appointment for three years;
- you will be appointed as an Assistant Professor, Level 1 (UFO profile:

niveau 2), depending on qualifications and experience.
